KB5035849 for Windows 10 and Windows Server encounters 0xd0000034 failure, but fret not as there are others who have also reported about the same issue. The immediate solution to counter the KB5035849 update’s 0xd0000034 installation problem is to head to the Microsoft Update Catalog and manually initiate the patch using .msu installers.
The update, KB5035849, is the recent update for Windows 10 version 1809 (LTSC) and Windows Server, deployed as part of Microsoft’s Patch Tuesday in March 2024. According to accounts observed by Windows Latest, KB5035849 fails to install tagging error 0xd0000034, which doesn’t aid in identifying the bug.
The update faces a similar failure on Windows Server 2019 with “2024-03 Cumulative Update for Windows Server 2019 (1809) for x64-based Systems (KB5035849) surfacing Download error – 0xd0000034.” If you are impacted, here’s a rapid step-by-step guide to resolve the 0xd0000034 error during the installation process:
Upon completion, Windows will activate the KB5035849 automatically, and a system reboot is a must to complete the installation process.
However, before installing the March 2024 security patch, ensure you’ve already deployed KB5005112 (August 2021 servicing stack update).
Also, it’s important to mention that in Windows 10 version 1809 LTSC, you may come across a slightly extended error message that also states Windows is experiencing difficulties downloading some updates:
There were problems downloading some updates, but we’ll try again later. If you keep seeing this, try searching the web or contacting support for help. This error code might help: (0xd0000034).
This issue impacts Windows Server 2019 more than the LTSC version of Windows 10 version 1809, as admins predominantly use the Server editions. However, the workaround is applicable across all editions where KB5035849 is available.
Windows Latest understands that Microsoft is aware of the reports and is investigating the issue. If you’re still unable to deploy the patch via the Update Catalog, I recommend checking for updates a few hours after Microsoft has released a fix.
March 2024 update for version 1809 (LTSC enterprise) is an important release as it fixes multiple issues, including a bug that affects Active Directory domains. In addition to the version 1809 update, Microsoft has also released KB5035845 for newer versions of Windows 10.
